I grew up around race tracks, my exhusband lived the life and while I rarely catch a race anymore I do pay attention to the standings. I have some incredibly deep roots in that community and I care about those people. It's not an easy job, from the mechanics to the drivers to the owners, I get why people enjoy picking on it but really, when you attack a sport or entertainment just because you don't understand it you're just reflecting badly on yourself. This particular sport employs many people, pays pretty well and almost every single person involved is grounded and cool. You can't say that about any other team event out there.

Right now I'm watching V8 supercars.
Are they going to televise the V8's when they go to Austin in a couple of weeks?

By way of thanks, they give you B.O.

It bores the hell out of me to watch somebody else playing any game...except maybe female canola oil wrestling or possibly midget tossing. Well...actually midget tossing might be more of a "pastime". I dunno...debate for another thread probably but yeah, watching sports is a damn good nap inducer for me.
